The Voice of the Philippines returns this summer featuring kids aged eight to 14 years old in the highly-anticipated The Voice Kids to be hosted by Luis Manzano and season one V-Reporter Alex Gonzaga.

Also returning as coaches are Popstar Royalty Sarah Geronimo, Rock Superstar Bamboo, and Broadway Diva Lea Salonga. The show’s unique format extremely appealed to Filipino viewers, especially its "blind auditions" where hopefuls auditioned by singing on stage with the coaches facing against them.

The taping for the blind auditions of The Voice Kids happened on Monday, March 17 where the three superstar coaches sat for the first time in new red chairs and built their respective teams in the new blind auditions set and stage.

Netizens were totally in awe upon seeing the new stage design, set and lighting. Some said that this new stage was a big upgrade from last season's blind auditions set (CLICK HERE to see how it looks like) which was highly criticized. Others commented that this Blind Auditions stage for the kids edition is truly world-class and also way grander than the live shows stage last season.

The Voice Kids will air on ABS-CBN soon. This will be followed by the airing of The Voice of the Philippines season 2. Mitoy Yonting is the very first winner of the ABS-CBN franchise of the worldwide hit reality singing show.

It will be hosted by Luis Manzano and season one V Reporter Alex Gonzaga.

“The Voice of the Philippines” raised the bar of singing competitions by focusing on vocal supremacy, not the looks or the back stories of the artists. Its first season also elicited excitement among audiences with its world-class production and riveting storytelling of the journey of both the artists and coaches.

Season one produced the first ever “Voice of the Philippines” Mitoy of Team Lea, who proved to be a first-class vocal talent that can compete in the global arena.

The Philippine adaptation of the popular international TV franchise turned out to be highly successful, engaging audiences on-air, online, and on mobile as it constantly won the ratings game, dominated social media, and rallied viewers to vote for their voice of choice week after week.

The show’s unique format extremely appealed to Filipino viewers, especially its “blind auditions” where hopefuls auditioned by singing on stage with the coaches facing against them.

It not only saw the artists competing, but also the coaches who battled each other in picking artists, and when their respected teams delivered the best performances during the live shows leading to the finale.

Watch out for “The Voice Kids” airing soon on ABS-CBN. For updates on the program, like www.facebook.com/thevoiceabscbn, or follow @thevoiceabscbn on Twitter and @abscbnthevoice on Instagram
